Unplugged

That title is misleading....you may think my blog posts haven't been delayed because I 'unplugged' myself from the internet.  Actually, it was the exact opposite.  I only have the internet on my phone (instead of at the house) so I've been plugged into my phone for months.  Looking at pinterest on my phone...do you have the pinterest app?  It's amazing!!  I'm playing Words with Friends with my fiance and checking Instagram every 30 minutes.  I've also been watching YouTube on my phone for the first time...election parodies and Catholic videos. 

However, my 4G's of data are running out quick!  I have 2 weeks left and I've already used 3.2Gs.  Oops....So this weekend and more so yesterday I turned off the data on my phone.  I could only receive text messages and phone calls.  I couldn't check pinterest, instagram, facebook or even play words with friends.  And guess what?  I got so much accomplished!!  I rearranged my desk, I cleared off the kitchen table, and cleaned the living room.  I did the dishes and even had time to listen to a Dani Johnson call.  As Dani says, focusing on what's in front of you  can lead to success.  Avoid the focus on what's behind you, what's distracting you and what's causing your problems (laziness, excuses, bad attitude).  Instead commit and focus on your one or 3 goals and make them happen. I've definitely been allowing a LOT of outside influence in my life lately.  But I'm confident with my spiritual life better than it's ever been (and improving daily) I can focus on some back burner goals I've had and really bring them to fruition!

I hope you can too!  You can hear what I heard from Dani here: http://www.danijohnson.com/2012/part-1-refresh-refocus-redirect/  FREE TODAY (Tuesday 10/30) ONLY.
